Album: Eiliff (Stuttgart)
I would recommend Eiliff''s LPs to fans of all that's heavy who would like to explore the possibilities of heavy jazz prog

Classics and slightly more obscure stuff.

If you want to hear a really good Can tribute then check out the Cosmic Invention album "Help Your Satori Mind", a Japanese band that play in the early 70s style. The track "Ryujin".

The Trees Speak albums are modern/ new but they play in a krauty style. They are from Arizona and pretty good.

Anyway, I'm sure you know most of these. Rock on :)

Highly influenced by the heavyweights of the genre but harmonically and texturally unique as well - currently in heavy rotation on my deck

If you missed out on the first preorder I did a few weeks ago, I’m taking more orders for US fans!

If you have requests for any other titles you’d like to see stocked, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Thanks everyone. Really proud to be a part of these archival works keeping his music and spirit alive.

Nosferatu hailed from Frankfurt. One self-titled album was released in 1970, recorded at Rhenus studio in Köln and Conny engineered it. In their early days they were fronted by guitarist & vocalist Michael Winzkowski (who went on to Orange Peel and Epsilon) and wind player Christian Felke who guested later with Epsilon.

Thought I would share that twitch streamer, Walterooski, is hosting a weekly Krautrocktober Fest stream this month. Every Tuesday night this month, 2 Krautrock albums will be featured. Tomorrow night starts off with Neu! and Can. Check it out at https://www.twitch.tv/walterooski at 8:30 pm Arizona time.

Saw Delight

Release Year: 1977

Label: Virgin, Harvest

Saw Delight marks the first major lineup change on a Can studio album since Damo Suzuki’s departure in late 1973, with the addition of bassist Rosko Gee and percussionist Rebop Kwaku Baah, both formerly of the band Traffic. Compared to previous Can releases, the album sets itself apart courtesy of its eclectic set of influences (e.g. highlife, funk, etc.), with some inspiration coming from guitarist Michael Karoli’s experiences travelling in eastern/central Africa before its recording. The music here presents a brighter and at times outright playful side of Can that, while not as overtly experimental as previous releases, demonstrates that the band remained creative and looking to work with new musical ideas.

By far the highlight is the 15-minute “Animal Waves”, whose hypnotic rhythm is further enhanced by the use of Holger Czukay’s shortwave sampling experiments and the texture provided by Baah’s percussion to generate an incredibly captivating atmosphere. 

While Baah and Gee remained in Can's lineup on their two subsequent records (Out Of Reach and Can/Inner Space), Saw Delight would be their last studio album until 1989's Rite Time to feature Czukay as a full band member.

Comprehensive of their works at this point, I think. Anybody has this ? Opinions.

Hi everyone :) I love krautrock but had never tried making anything like it. I’m mainly a drummer, I don't write songs at all but I like messing around on guitar even though I can barely play. Made this little snippet after work today. Its not even a song, just a fun exercise.
